James 1:8, KJV: “A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.”
It’s not just a mental health issue: it’s a stability issue. Be mindful of those who are always on board with every new idea you share but can’t be found when it’s time to get to work. Be mindful of those who always appear to agree that anything is possible until you actually start working and they fall off.
Success doesn’t happen overnight: it takes diligence, time and hard work. Not waiting for clarity and making split hair decisions out of fear of failure, will lead to you forfeiting your blessing. All the time you’ve invested, money, work, blood, sweat and tears can be lost if you are not rooted and listen to the wrong council.
A lack of clarity and impatience is a vulnerable place that someone with a hidden agenda manipulates and plants seeds. The person might have the loudest voice and use his or her quick tongue to plant doubt, disbelief, chaos and confusion. If you haven’t checked your foundation for cracks, weaknesses and shifting, you will never notice the counterfeit materials that he or she pours in to “fill the gaps.” These pours will further weaken your core and can result in not only a shift but complete deterioration of your foundation.

Don’t throw away your blessings due to frustration, deception or impatience.
Life often doesn’t look the way you want it to during the process, but what a glorious end you receive when you persist and focus on your purpose!
Stay in the fight and DO NOT forfeit or be swayed by anything and no one!
